Raycast2D hitting colliders it shouldnt be. 2018.1 pictures included.

Hi,

I have a bit of a problem with raycasting in my 2D game. Now I have my camera positioned in such a way that it looks at the world at an angle. (-30 on x rotation)

I have made a raycast in orthographic projection with the following code:

 Vector3 screenNear = new Vector3(Input.mousePosition.x,Input.mousePosition.y,cam.nearClipPlane);
 Vector3 screenFar = new Vector3(Input.mousePosition.x,Input.mousePosition.y,cam.farClipPlane);
 
             Vector3 farPoint = cam.ScreenToWorldPoint(screenFar);
             Vector3 nearPoint = cam.ScreenToWorldPoint(screenNear);
 
             RaycastHit2D hit = Physics2D.Raycast(nearPoint, farPoint - nearPoint);
 
             Debug.DrawRay(nearPoint, farPoint - nearPoint, Color.green);

the debug line that gets drawn seems to do exactly what I want it to, as you can see in my image. however it is still reporting that it is hitting the collider which it clearly is not.
